Square 65 x 65 x 50

Stone slabs bolted together. The farmer told me that this used to house his water supply from a spring. He dug it up when replacing it with a larger one many years ago. He suspects that it might have been twice as long at one time as the ends are jagged, as if they had been broken off. He told me that many troughs like this, made from Helwith slate slabs, were made at Silloth Mill (now Silloth House), just across the fields.

Looked good but probably will not now hold water. Used for plants
